The ripstop material looks cool and feels solid. It is wider than your average belt and stays tied very well. The rising sun patch looks very nice. Make sure to buy 1 size lower than your gi size. I ordered an A1 and it is about the same size as the A2 War blue belt I wore for 3 years.

The best belt on the market hence the high price. The belt doesn't wear out or gets all soggy because of sweet. It has a nice texture to it and holds up really well when rolling. I own lots of different belts from various brand and hayabusa belts are the best on the mats. Most belts get soggy and flat when they get wet because of the sweat and so forth. Hayabusa belts stays dry and feels new every time you put it on.

Products like this exemplify why I am such a fan of Hayabusa Fightwear. I was worried about being at the top of the chart in my size but everything fits perfectly and looks and feels great doing it. If quality is your concern, this belt is well worth the extra money compared to other brands.
